Patent EP-0450871-A3 (EP)
Title: Interfaces for transmission lines
Inventor: GUNNING WILLIAM F
IPC: H03K19/0185
Filed: 1991-03-28
Abstract: This invention provides very wide channel, open drain, N-channel CMOS drivers (16) 
and cascode CMOS receivers (17) for interfacing VLSI CMOS circuits to transmission lines (14) 
which are terminated by their characteristic resistive impedances (21, 22) to voltage levels of the 
order of about 1.2 - 2.0 V. These GTL (a coined descriptor) drivers and receivers typically operate 
with a voltage swing of the order of about 0.8 - 1.4 V on such transmission lines for carrying out 
binary communications between CMOS circuits configured to operate with standard 5 V rail-to-rail 
voltage swings for their internal signals.

Title: Process and installation for the application of a soluble coffee powder
IPC: A23L27/00
Filed: 1992-08-01
Abstract: A frost is produced by condensing carbon dioxide charged with coffee flavourings and with water. The frost is then conveyed, by a supply device 2, into a chamber 1 containing a certain quantity of oil renewed by addition and drawing-off via conduits 4 and 5. The carbon dioxide is sublimed and the ice is melted, forming an emulsion with the oil. The emulsion is drawn off and the oil is separated from the water. Application to the incorporation of an oil enriched with coffee flavourings into a soluble coffee powder. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0518511-A3 (EP)
Title: Computer having i/o channel check and parity check detector
IPC: G06F11/10
Filed: 1992-05-22
Abstract: An improved I/O channel check and parity check detector includes two similar detection paths each of which includes a check detector, a glitch reject circuit, and a read back register. A memory parity error causes a bit to be set in the read back register. An I/O channel check sets another bit in a read back register provided a memory parity error has not been signalled. If such signal occurs, the channel check is rejected. The read back bits are read through a port allowing the system to determine the source of error.

Title: A reduced tension modular neon sign system.
Inventor: PACHOLOK DAVID R
IPC: H05B41/392
Filed: 1993-10-08
Abstract: A modular neon sign system comprising two or more independent neon or similar luminous tube segments (12, 14, 16). One or more of the luminous segments are arranged in generally parallel configuration across the remaining tube segments and each such parallel segment includes a series capacitive ballasting element (24, 26, 28) to selectively control the current through the respective segment. Receptacles (30) may be provided to facilitate the attachment of the parallel segments thereby forming detachable neon modules. The capacitive ballasting element is preferably a ceramic button-like disc that may be connected to an end of the parallel neon module or inserted into the receptacle. In one embodiment the several parallel segments are connected to a reduced tension constant voltage power supply. In a second embodiment, a constant current power supply is continuously interconnected to one or more neon luminous tubes that define a fixed portion (50) of the sign with the parallel segment(s) or module(s) (52) being connected across said fixed portion.

Abstract: An implantable dual-chamber pacemaker programmed to
operate primarily in an atrial tracking mode is
provided, where the pacemaker maintains a consistent
atrial rate of entry into, and exit from, a 2:1 block
response mode by setting rate-responsive AV delay values
in accordance with a continually monitored intrinsic
atrial rate incorporating atrial events occurring during
atrial refractory periods. The atrial rate of entry
into, and exit from the 2:1 block response mode is
determined by the length of a total atrial refractory
period, which is the sum of the rate-responsive AV delay
and a programmable refractory period.

IPC: H04B3/04
Filed: 1996-04-23
Abstract: A digital communication system and corresponding feedback equalization
method are described for use in reducing multi-path distortions, such distortions being
diminished by employment of an adaptive conjugate gradient algorithm wherein weight
coefficients of feed-forward and feedback filter taps are updated recursively during
transmission of each data symbol. Weight coefficients are updated based on converging
transmission error values, the weight coefficients being updated until either a predetermined
number of updates are made, or until the current transmission error value is less than or
equal to a predetermined percentage of the initial transmission error value for the given
symbol.
Patent EP-0755146-A3 (EP)
Title: Voice-and-data modem call-waiting
Inventor: O'HORO PATRICK JAMES
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 1996-07-10
Abstract: The call-waiting feature is supported on voice-and-data modems (22,25)
by causing voice-and-data modems to go into voice-only mode upon receipt of the
modem clear-down signal (352-354). A first voice-and-data modem (22) engaged in
an initial voice-and-data call with a second voice-and-data modem (25) responds to
receipt of a call-waiting signal by generating a replica of the call-waiting signal on
the user's audio channel. The first modem responds to a user request (300) to pick
up the waiting call by sending (306) the modem clear-down signal to the second
voice-and-data modem, going (312) into voice-only mode, and transmitting (314) a
waiting-call acceptance signal. The initial call that is placed (332) on hold is thus a
voice-only call. While in a voice-plus-data picked-up waiting call, the first modem
responds to a user request to reinstate the initial call by again sending the modem
clear-down signal, going into voice-only mode, and transmitting a call-resumption
signal. The first modem is thus in voice-only-mode when it is re-connected to the
initial, voice-only, call. The re-connected initial call may now be re-converted into a
voice-plus-data call in the conventional manner.

Title: Method and means for eliminating animals which are infected with the BSE causing agent
Inventor: FUSS HARDY
IPC: A22B5/00
Filed: 1997-04-21
Abstract: A new procedure removes infected animals, especially those carrying the agent causing BSE (bovine specific encephalomyelitis). The animals are slaughtered and the bodies further treated. The blood is intercepted (12, 13) and treated with a denaturant and colourant in a mixer (15). The mixture is stored in a collection vessel (19), to be transported away. Bled carcasses are opened to remove the innards. These are comminuted in a so-called dissolver (24) and saturated with denaturant and colourant. Finally they are stored in a collection vessel (25) pending transportation. Injection lances (29) are thrust into the carcasses following removal of innards.

Abstract: An image display device having a liquid crystal
display panel in which display picture elements are
arranged according to a dot matrix form includes a control
circuit that controls the drive of a source driver and
gate driver such that writing of signals for frame display
in a horizontal direction is performed during the vertical
blanking interval of input image signals. During the
vertical blanking interval, the control circuit writes to
the source driver each source selection signal of picture
elements that are to display the horizontal frame and
holds this data. The control circuit then generates
sequential gate selection signals from the gate driver
while supplying the held output of the source driver to
the sources of the picture elements, and supplies
horizontal frame display signals to the picture elements.
